Robert Wise wanted the film to have a single rising line of tension, with no light moments after the rumble. Therefore, {I Feel Pretty} was moved earlier, and the positions of {Cool} and {Gee, Officer Krupke} were reversed. Those who feel that the sassy, light-hearted tone of {Gee, Officer Krupke} is out of place following the deaths that end the first act prefer the film's ordering of the numbers. The placement of {I Feel Pretty} and {Gee, Officer Krupke} after the Rumble in the stage version was meant to help cheer people up after the deaths of Bernardo and Riff, as audiences were not used to death occurring in Broadway musicals. This issue is still heatedly debated among the film's fans.
